Proverbs 31:10-31
10 Who can find a virtuous woman? for her price is far above rubies. 11 The heart of her husband doth safely trust in her, so that he shall have no need of spoil. 12 She will do him good and no evil all the days of her life. 13 She seeketh wool, and flax, and worketh willingly with her hands. 14 She is like the merchants'; ship; she bringeth her food from afar. 15 She riseth also while it is yet night, and giveth meat to her household, and a portion to her maidens. 16 She considereth a field, and buyeth it: with the fruit of her hands she planteth a vineyard. 17 She girdeth her loins with strength, and strengtheneth her arms. 18 She perceiveth that her merchandise is good: her candle goeth not out by night. 19 She layeth her hands to the spindle, and her hands hold the distaff. 20 She stretcheth out her hand to the poor; yea, she reacheth forth her hands to the needy. 21 She is not afraid of the snow for her household: for all her household are clothed with scarlet. 22 She maketh herself coverings of tapestry; her clothing is silk and purple. 23 Her husband is known in the gates, when he sitteth among the elders of the land. 24 She maketh fine linen, and selleth it; and delivereth girdles unto the merchant. 25 Strength and honour are her clothing; and she shall rejoice in time to come. 26 She openeth her mouth with wisdom; and in her tongue is the law of kindness. 27 She looketh well to the ways of her household, and eateth not the bread of idleness. 28 Her children arise up, and call her blessed; her husband also, and he praiseth her. 29 Many daughters have done virtuously, but thou excellest them all. 30 Favour is deceitful, and beauty is vain: but a woman that feareth the Lord, she shall be praised. 31 Give her of the fruit of her hands; and let her own works praise her in the gates.

Oh, Kathy,
I had the best Mother’s Day today! Three of my four daughters came to visit me. I received a lovely Orchid plant, Deep Purple, and to water it they say, put 1 ice cube on top once a week. Isn’t that strange?
It was so nice the girls came today, one granddaughter, too.

Traffic was fine coming into the city. Seattle was OK. Coming home was a mess. Check Post #116 at the Canteen thread as to the accident that snarled the entire northbound freeway.

Happy Mothers Day To All Mothers Of The Canteen!
"Mother Machree" Sung by John McCormack (Click)
There's a spot in my heart, Which no colleen may own. There's a depth in my soul, Never sounded or known; There's a place in my mem'ry, My life, that you fill, No other can take it, No one ever will.
Sure, I love the dear silver That shines in your hair, And the brow that's all furrowed, And wrinkled with care. I kiss the dear fingers, So toil-worn for me, Oh, God bless you and keep you, Mother Machree.
Ev'ry sorrow or care In the dear days gone by, Was made bright by the light Of the smile in your eye, Like a candle that's set In the window at night, Your fond love has cheered me And guided me right.
Sure, I love the dear silver That shines in your hair, And the brow that's all furrowed, And wrinkled with care. I kiss the dear fingers, So toil-worn for me, Oh, God bless you and keep you, Mother Machree.

"TAKE UP THY CROSS AND FOLLOW ME"
"I Vow To Thee My Country" Choir Of King's College, Cambridge (Click)
"I VOW TO THEE, my country, all earthly things above, Entire and whole and perfect, the service of my love; The love that asks no question, the love that stands the test, That lays upon the altar the dearest and the best; The love that never falters, the love that pays the price, The love that makes undaunted the final sacrifice.
And there's another country, I've heard of long ago, Most dear to them that love her, most great to them that know; We may not count her armies, we may not see her King; Her fortress is a faithful heart, her pride is suffering; And soul by soul and silently her shining bounds increase, And her ways are ways of gentleness, and all her paths are peace."

ROFL!
Nugent is a little town in West Texas and that church was still active a few years ago when I attended with my aunt and uncle.

I guess if Ted had his own denomination, it would be called something like Church of the Nuge.

I normally do not post on this thread but I cannot let this story pass. It is well worth the read! The following song is named, "El Todopoderoso," which translates as "The All Powerful".
A young lady we know graduated nursing school last summer so that she immediately became an emergency room nurse. Shortly after graduation she got married and became pregnant.
After the first of the year her doctor told her that she was going to give birth to a little girl.....BUT.....the little girl would be born with spina bifida. The doctor then told her that she and her husband would have to decide to abort or let the child be born and live with the consequences. The doctor gave to them a week to decide.
After the week she and her husband returned to the doctor's office to inform him that they had decided to let the little girl be born and shower her with love regardless of the consequences and an uncertain future.
When they told the doctor he said that he wanted them to make the decision without his influence. He want on to say that there have been successful operations that would remove the spina bifida from the little girl and that she would be born normally and live a happy and healthy life.
He told them that he was going to call in a team of doctors would review her charts, X-rays, MRIs as well as all other tests to see if they thought if she was a good candidate for the surgery. He explained that the little girl would be removed from her womb by C-Section, the spina bifida removed from the little girl then reinserted back into her womb.
After extensive testing by this team of doctors the couple found out a few weeks ago that the surgery was a "Go."
Last week the surgery was performed and was successful. The doctors told the couple that they can expect their little girl to be born without any complications and live a normal, healthy life.
When Mrs. spel's aunt, who was 96 at the time, fell and was in terrible shape. However, she made a full recovery and a week later she was back to her normal routine. Her son visited her. She told him, "I really thought that I had bought the farm this time." He replied, "Science and technology fell on you!"
It seems that science and technology fell on this young couple, too, but I also think that "The All Powerful" had something to do with the outcome for this young couple.
I say, "Wow! What a Mother's Day present this young couple received this year!"
